As I said before, examine the configure.cache file. What does it 
contain? If it contains something like -no-phonon, then the phonon 
libraries were not built. If this is the case, you have two choices. 
First, you can go to the qt\src\phonon directory and run qmake there on 
the phonon.pro file to create makefiles, then run make to build the 
phonon libraries.
Second, you can reconfigure and rebuild all of Qt. This will take a 
couple of hours.

If the configure.cache file does not have -no-phonon or it has -phonon 
and you still do not have the phonon libraries, then perhaps your C 
compiler is not good enough. If you run configure with the -help flag 
you get a list of options to configure. This list contains the line

+  -phonon ............ Build the Phonon module.
Phonon is built if a decent C++ compiler is used.

Note, apparently, phonon is not built if you don't have a decent C compiler.
